I count meeting Miriam as one of the 10 best things I have done for my own career. She is one of those people whose opinion counts. Not only did she help me prepare world-class job search documents and enrich my personal on-line brand, but she is also a gifted business writer who works magic with any written communication. Most importantly, Miriam has become a colleague I trust. She has a deep understanding of many industries and I consider her an expert in all social networking platforms. Miriam is always on the cutting edge, and I know she will help many job seekers get noticed.

After being out of the work force for over four years, I was lost when facing the task of updating my resume. Keppie Careers was a life-saver! We all have skills and talents; however, getting them on paper in a way that pops out to potential employers is an art. Thanks to Keppie Careers, I now have a polished, professional and very well written resume and have found the perfect job! Thank you for your outstanding service!

I’m hardly a religious person, but I must bless you for all the inspiration and support you’ve given me. What you do is very special. I hope earthly rewards will follow, because you deserve them.

“…Miriam, founder of Keppie Careers, was one of the original career experts who joined the T.A.P. team, and the advice she gave resonated with me in a way that made me stop panicking and start pushing forward. I knew I needed someone like her on my side. We began working together and she became one of my heroes (heroines?) after talking me through the differences of networking today and my next steps in reaching out to people. I can honestly say she was the catalyst in getting me outside my comfort zone to dive into Twitter, follow up with my contacts on a regular basis, and attend events I never saw myself being able to go to. I have made incredible strides in my personal and professional development because of her advice, positive energy, and motivation and I’m forever indebted to her. If you’ve been dealing with rocks and are in need of a gem, talk to her. I promise you won’t be disappointed..”
